What is deep pressure?

Deep pressure is gentle, even pressure on the body that has a calming effect and gives a sense of safety, much like a firm hug. Weighted products and pressure aids use this principle to bring calm and help you relax. Deep pressure is widely used to support sensory processing, for example with ADHD or autism, and helps both children and adults to settle down or sleep better. In this overarching category you will find the whole range: weighted blankets such as the Weighted Blanket, weighted cuddly toys such as the Manimo Weighted Dolphin and the Cuddle Ball, and pressure aids such as the Deep Pressure Roller, the Dozie ZenDragon and the Hammock Swing.

Choosing deep pressure products

When choosing from this range, the main things to consider are the type of product, the weight and how it will be used:

  • Type of product: a blanket for bed, a cuddly toy for the lap, or a roller and swing for more active pressure input.
  • Weight: choose a weight that feels pleasantly heavy without being oppressive, matched to the user.
  • Use: for relaxing during the day, as support when falling asleep, or for movement combined with deep pressure.

If you are unsure about the weight, go for the lighter side, especially for children. The products often complement each other nicely: a blanket for the night, a cuddly toy for the day and a roller for in between.
